Tubular Rudder

Tubular Rudder

Application

Tubular rudder is suitable for the harbor tug, dredger, etc, which has the higher requirements for ship maneuverability. The rudder blade is the body that generates the force of the rudder and is made of wood or steel. Now, except for wooden sailboats, they are all made of steel, and most of them are welded into a hollow airfoil shape, and the connection with the rudder stock and rudder pin is made of cast steel. The tubular rudder is typically made of steel or other durable materials and has a smooth, streamlined surface that reduces drag and turbulence. Its cylindrical or tubular shape also allows for improved distribution of hydrodynamic forces, which improves steering control.

Advantages and Features

1.Improve the thrust of propeller effectively.

2.Prevent the propeller impacted by other objects effectively.

3.Reduce the turning diameter of vessel effectively.

4.Reduce the vibration of stern.

5.Superior astern maneuverability.
